Nintendo Gaming / Can someone help me?

« on: April 29, 2004, 03:38:15 PM »

Does anyone know where I can find the gamecube cover template?  You know, the template that many people use to make custom cover art and actually use it for their games by inserting it into the cases?

There are some that I would like to make, but I don't know where to find the template.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Nintendo Gaming / Dead Phoenix - Kid Icarus conversion

« on: April 16, 2004, 11:44:30 AM »

I wish I could confirm this, but that is not the point of this topic.  I just wanted to point out a few reasons as to why this may be true.  I would also like to hear your opinions on the matter.  Would you like a new Kid Icarus?  Do you think we'll see or hear something at E3? Your thoughts?

Some of the points I wish to make
     - Dead Phoenix sported a gothic style, almost reminiscent to the original NES version of Kid Icarus
     - The game originally took place in a mythical world filled with amazing and unique architecture
     - The main character has wings and eventually gains the ability to fly
     - The main character fires projectiles for offense, which could be converted to Pit's arrows
     - The main character gains physical and other item upgrades throughout the game, just like in Kid Icarus
     - (not sure) A capcom representative once stated that they would like to collaborate with Nintendo on another
        one of their popular franchises (this was stated after the zelda games)
     - Capcom is very experienced with shooters and action games
     - If I remember correctly, one of the aspects of Dead Phoenix allowed you to command and control an army
       of some sort.  If this information is wrong, please correct me.  Anyways, if anyone remembers the dungeons
       in Kid Icarus, you were able to free soldiers trapped in stone and they would assist you during the boss
       battle.  I thought these two concepts would make a good conversion

So what are your opinions on this? Do you have any other similarities to add?  I'm exstatic about a new Kid Icarus and I am really interested in hearing what you have to say.

One thing I liked about Dead Phoenix was the style of graphics.... they were a bit edgier and darker, and I think it would be great to see a new Kid Icarus with that style.

If I am posting in the wrong forum, I apologize.... I thought this would fit well in the gamecube discussion, but because I mentioned E3, I wasn't sure if it should be there instead.

Please, post away!
